What is/was the score? I tipped GWS, but not by a huge margin.

    Looks like the Hawks went clubbing last night,turned up hungover and forgot to change their clothes.

    Hodgey might be in trouble as well. Dished out the usual head high coat hanger when he was getting beaten and some run ins with Stevie J.

    Nup.  Were lucky to win last three games by less than a goal and had umpire help.  Just getting old (er) and cant keep up with young fast teams.  

    13 goal victory to gws!  I reckon 90 rotations must really hurt hawks and their game.

    We play them twice.  IF we turn up we are a chance.

    If i were a Hawks fan (shudders at the thought), i might be disappointed, but ultimately wouldn't give a sh!t.

    I'd have seen 4 premierships in the past 8 years.

    I hate the look of that Power Rangers outfit.

    Watching Gold Coast for the first time this year.

    They look to be a 1 man forward line.

    Geez what a job GWS did on the hawks. But as a hawks fan you cannot complain. Just watch the last 3 premierships instead. 

    Id love to see port beat Richmond. Just add more pressure on them. 

    Freo still winless. It's just strange to see them on the bottom.

    That man is pretty good though.

    But you're right - stop Lynch and you go some way to stopping GC.

    Looking at tonight's game, I just don't think Geelong get enough free kicks at Kardinia Park.

    Had we won today, we'd currently be above Hawthorn on the ladder.

    Kind of hard to believe, really.

    Hoping this is a sign that Hawthorn, without luck/free kicks, is one or two notches below the best this year.

    How shite are the tigers? Hardwick must come under some scrutiny. Even if it's horseshit dumped by supporters outside his office

    Good thing we have Tom McDonald to zone off him next week.

    And what a gun at zoning he is.  No one does it better.

    Yep, can't wait to see the next evolution of our defensive zones in action. T-Mac could end up matched on Malceski!

    Speaking of Gold Coast, Geelong are unsurprisingly, proverbially [censored] on them from a great height. Who the hell starts favourites next week? I'll be devastated if it's us, because it's a certain loss. :P

    We'll beat Gold Coast. I'm generally pessimistic but, for all the AFL assistance, they are rubbish. And it looks like they've picked up injuries.

    Wait till they get Roughy and anyone else who is injured back for the finals run and have a full list for the GF as usual.  If they finish top 4 they will give it a big shake on their home ground MFC yet again! Those 3 close wins will give them a great shot at top 4.

    Gold Coast are rubbish. There is no chance they'll make the 8, even we have more chance than they do.

    Unfortunately that makes us the wildcard, because really there's a clear 8 teams who are above us and we need something drastic to happen for us to join that group.

    That's the ticket! Declare victory for the next round only hours a sour defeat! 

    Gotta love Dees supporters!

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
